About Your B&D Opener
Thank you for choosing a Controll-A-Door® P automatic garage door opener, designed and developed in Australia by B&D Doors & Openers.
The technically advanced construction of this B&D opener ensures you enjoy the following benefits:
Warranty
Five (5) year/10,000 cycles full parts and labour warranty on motor, electronics and mechanical components of the opener when installed by an Approved B&D Dealer (conditions such as annual garage door servicing apply).
Tri-Tran Frequency Hopping Technology
Every time a transmitter is used, it simultaneously sends a signal over three different frequencies, reducing the chance of interference from other radio frequency sources.
Code Hopping Technology
Every time a transmitter is used a new security code is generated from over 4.29 billion possible combinations. This greatly enhances the security of the system and makes “code grabbing” a thing of the past!
Multi-Channel Transmitter
Multi-channel transmitters allow you to operate other devices such as an adjoining garage door or automated gate from the same handy unit.
Warranty Expired Indicator
The opener will indicate that the number of cycles covered by the warranty has been reached by flashing the courtesy light 10 times after each operation. This flashing will continue for 20 cycles unless it is reset by pressing the LIMIT SET button while the courtesy light is flashing.
Safety Reversing System
The automatic safety reverse system significantly reduces the risk of death or serious injury if trapped by a closing door. The safety reverse force can be adjusted for environmental conditions such as windy areas.
LED Courtesy Light
Using the latest Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology, the opener features two light modules consisting of ten LEDs each. These modules produce a brilliant white light that illuminates the garage upon activation.
The courtesy light automatically switches on for approximately four (4) minutes (time programmable via a handheld programmer) when operating the door. This can also be programmed to turn on and off from a transmitter.
Memory Retention
In case of a power failure the opener does not lose the transmitter codes or limit settings.
Manual Release
The manual release handle allows the door to be operated by hand in the event of a power failure.
Self Locking
There is no need to manually lock your garage door, as the opener ‘positively’ locks the door when closed.
Periodic Maintenance Indicator
The SERVICE LED will illuminate to indicate that periodic maintenance is required. Contact your dealer/ installer for service.
Service Fault Indicator
Flashing LEDs on the control panel easily identify operational problems or service requirements.
Dynamic Door Profiling
Changing door characteristics are automatically compensated for and “learnt” with each operation of the door.
Auto-Close
The Auto-Close option can be programmed to shut the door approximately 30 seconds after it opens. PLEASE NOTE – Safety Infra-red Beams must be installed for this option to function.
External Aerial
An external aerial can be connected for sites where radio reception is a problem.
Vacation Mode
A transmitter can be programmed to disable the garage door opener’s radio receiver. This is ideal if the door is to be left idle for prolonged periods.
Pet (Pedestrian) Mode
A transmitter can be programmed to open the door partially to allow pets access to the garage. The door opening height is adjustable via a handheld programmer.
Auxiliary Output
You can program a spare button on your transmitter to operate this output, which can control items that use a momentary close switching mechanism.
Anti-Travel Electronic Brakes
The opener features an electronic anti-travel brake mechanism to ensure the opener stops the door exactly at the set limit positions.
